Ladies, for those who’ve experienced this, when did your relationship shift from verbal to physical abuse? Was it a gradual progression, and were there any red flags along the way?What is your and your partners ethnicities and do you feel cultural factors or norms may have influenced their behavior in any way?If you were pregnant during the relationship, did that have any effect on the dynamics or behavior?Have you noticed any repeating patterns or cycles that could serve as warning signs for others?Lastly, is your partner diagnosed with or have they shown traits of narcissistic personality disorder or any other cluster B personality disorder?I have first hand experience of a narcissistic partner who's physically violent, and I’m just looking to learn from others experiences and perspectives as I write a paper and possible article in honor of Domestic Violence Awarness month. Please feel free to share your thoughts in whatever format you’re most comfortable with.*I'm sharing this across multiple chat forums and social media platforms to reach a wider audience. I WON'T be sharing any troll comments or harassment in the info I gather. Thank you to anyone who participates.
>>33870211>majority of domestic violence mutual>of non-mutual domestic violence, men are the victims 80% of the time>still only care about women
>>33870225I made this post specifically for female victims, but I also have a post specifically focusing on male victims, as well.If I can figure out how to cross link to that post, I will, otherwise I'll share the info to access it.Thanks for your input.
>>33870256>I made this post specifically for female victimsGreat, then you can focus your paper on how lesbian couples have by far the highest rates of domestic violence.
>>33870256>female victimsNo such thing.I used to wonder why husbands drank, I don't wonder anymore.
>>33870225Yeah you just made this shit up. I'm a man myself and are you really going to play the "men are the true victims card." This isn't a real statistic at all. Men are obviously stronger than Women. A man can kill a Woman with his bare hands, a Woman would need a weapon to do the same. Back up your claims with evidence or sybau.
>>33870296>nuh uhGreat rebuttal….
>>33870267Then go find a post focusing on that specifically you wierdo. Why comment something on OPs post that's not relevant at all.
>>33870296
>>33870270Wow look at the bitch boy who can't take accountability for HIS addiction. Quit blaming others and get help you idiot.
>>33870296>I'm a man myselfHello my fellow "man"
>>33870316Her post is about female victims of domestic violence, and lesbian couples have the highest rates of domestic violence. And you think that’s not relevant?
>>33870326I don't drink, I know why they did.
>>33870332>Her
>>33870332It's OBVIOUSLY about female victims in hereto relationships with men. Read the context stupid ass. Not everything has to be all inclusive of men and the whole lgbtq community.
Sorry OP it's 2025 and every Gen Z thinks that men and the whole queer community need to be included in everything.
>>33870345Ohhh, so it’s NOT about female victims then and it’s actually about male abusers. Maybe they should have been more clear about that then, instead of thinly veiling misandry as advocacy for women.
>>33870379Dude shut up with your whiney bitchass Gen Z Kamala loving woke agenda
>>33870379THANK YOU, i was just about to say that, and you said it better than me.Like as a women myself, the topic about "female victims" pisses me off so much, especially because a lot of the women I encountered used it as an excuse to justify the bullshit they pulled, so that way if you try to hold THEM accountable for what they did, you'll get bashed on for it. Happens so much to the point I don't even believe "victims" anymore. HELL, it's also why a lot of male victims go completely unchecked for and never speak up about their abuse themselves. And even then, what the hell have these feministards in this thread done about it, huh? cause I'm going to bet that if they actually saw a victim of DV (regardless of gender), they wouldn't do shit about it except throw some blue-pilled bullshit on them that doesn't actually solve the problem, and then they'll go make a performative post like this damn thread to seem like some sort of savior for it.
>>33870401Kamala's a mysandrist herself btw
>>33870430Okay just pearly things lmao. You know not everyone falls into one extreme political side of the spectrum. You know its POSSIBLE to be in the middle and be a normal person.
>>33870430Alot of women "you've encountered" -so let's minimize the real victims here. If one person misbehaves, you all suffer. This is the same exact mentality as "most men I know ain't shit" - then I guess that means ALL men ain't shit... right. I'm sure you wouldn't agree with that though.. You know it's possible to have compassion for the real female victims of abuse and I'm not discounting anyone else's experience such as any male or queer victims of abuse, not everything has to be all inclusive, and it can be acknowledged as well without becoming a competition.
>>33870667>it can be acknowledged as wellIt is NEVER acknowledged. Ever. The narrative is always clear: men are only the abusers and women are only the victims.
>>33870693There are SO many articles and so much content on male/queer victims of domestic violence, so that's a blatant lie. ALSO, you know why there's so much more content covering female victims of domestic violence at the hands of a man.... because there are vastly MORE female victims of domestic violence by men. The facts: men are stronger than women - a man can kill a woman with his bare hands, when have you ever heard of a woman killing a man with her bare hands, not using a weapon of some sort?
>>33870746>because there are vastly MORE female victims of domestic violence by men.THIS IS NOT TRUE. Get this through your fucking head. The majority of heterosexual domestic violence is mutual. That means that in the majority of violent relationships, they are both are violent to each other. When it comes to unilateral interpersonal violence, the woman is the perpetrator 80% of the time. Men are actually victimized at a 4 times the rate at the hands of women. And it is NEVER talked about. Even you are parroting the same bullshit lies that there are vastly more female victims of domestic violence by men.
Funny how the majority of domestic violence incidents are initiated by the woman
I see everyone posting here trying to raise awarness of physical violence against men by women, saying things such as, "women initiate physical violence" "80 percent of men are on the receiving end of physical violence by women" and so on.. I have a single question though...Has any man died at the hands of a woman? -with the use of her bare hands
>>33870916>it doesn’t count if they don’t kill youAre you sure you want to go down that route?
>>33870940Absolutely, let's compare homicide rates of women at the hands of men vs. Men at the hands of women with no weapons used.
>>33870940Also I never said "it doesn't count if they don't kill you" A man could easily overpower any woman. A woman can not over power a man. I'm also NOT saying that because a man can overpower a woman, that it makes it okay for a woman to get physical with a man either.
>>33870968Okay, great. If they don’t kill you then it doesn’t count. By that same logic, as long as the guy doesn’t kill her, he can beat the ever-loving shit out of her and it doesn’t count. Do you not understand that by not recognizing men as victims, you have created a consistent logic that ends in the victimization of women?
>>33870788When I worked at a DV shelter, my female client was taken to jail at the same time as her male abuser. When they were both released (both still had charges of abuse) my client had a broken arm, black eye, scratches, bruises ribs. etc. he had a small scratch on his face from when she tried to get him to stop strangling her.Under these stats, would both be considered abusers ?People may colloquially refer to any act like slapping, scratching, pushing, etc as "abuse" but the sociological definition includes an imbalance of power.
>>33870995Men aren’t victims. Got it.
>>33870984Again I NEVER said if they don't kill you it doesn't count. My arguement is the power dynamic between a man and woman.
>>33871007What the person above said made perfect sense and they never said "Men aren't victims" so what the fuck are you talking about. Was the female who was being strangled not allowed to fight back... are you fucken kidding me.
>>33871012>if a woman beats the shit out a man, he deserved it bc he didn’t stop herGot it. I’ll make sure to tell the ladies that as well. They better get to cooking or they deserve the punishment.
>>33870225Rates like these are provided given things like slapping, however more lethal acts of violence are overwhelmingly committed by men. I'd much rather be slapped by a woman, than punched or even slapped by a man. There's a magnitude of difference in strength and power there and I'm a man myself. Also "mutual violence" alot of the time refers to victims of domestic violence fighting back instead of just taking a beating. Also, just to make it clear I'm by no means saying that it's okay for a woman to beat on a man. I'm just saying the power dynamic isn't even comparable and most of the time women fighting back is seen as "mutual abuse".
>>33871028Yeah you just sound like a mysogynist prick who probably does and has beat women you wierdo. Quit taking what people say out of context.
>>33871040They literally said this, you jackass>A man could easily overpower any woman.And consistently downplayed any violence against a man because he can supposedly fight her off. Going on and on about “power imbalance” bullshit. You people in this thread are absolute pieces of shit. A woman can beat the shit out of a guy, and yet bc he’s a man he can’t be a victim. Fuck all of you.
